• as a library in Go code

  package main
  
  import (
  	"encoding/json"
  	"fmt"
  	"os"
  
  	platformOS "github.com/codemodify/systemkit-platform-os"
  )
  
  func main() {
  	data, err := json.Marshal(platformOS.Info())
  	if err != nil {
  		fmt.Println(err.Error())
  	}
  
  	if len(os.Args) > 1 && os.Args[1] == "-p" {
  		data, err = json.MarshalIndent(platformOS.Info(), "", "    ")
  		if err != nil {
  			fmt.Println(err.Error())
  		}
  	}
  
  	if
  
  	fmt.Println(string(data))
  
  	if osInfo.Name == platformOS.OS_Linux {
  
  		fmt.Println("WE ARE ON Linux")
  		fmt.Println("Distro: ", osInfo.Distribution)
  
  	} else if platformOS.IsBSD(osInfo.Name) {
  
  		fmt.Println("WE ARE ON BSD family")
  
  	} else if platformOS.IsDarwin(osInfo.Name) {
  
  		fmt.Println("WE ARE ON WINDOWS family")
  
  	} else if platformOS.IsWindows(osInfo.Name) {
  
  		fmt.Println("WE ARE ON WINDOWS family")
  	}
  }
